NOTE   TO   THIRD   EDITION. 


Long  vowels  and  diphthongs  are  accented.  The  Notes,  as  given  in 
preceding  editions,  we  omit,  though  we  include  their  essential  features 
in  the  Glossary.  With  the  generous  aid  of  Professor  Harrison,  the 
text  has  been,  once  again,  thoroughly  revised,  on  the  basis  of  Grein, 
variant  readings  being  also  given.  The  Glossary,  it  will  be  seen,  is 
greatly  enlarged:  especially,  as  to  definitions,  references  to  text,  and 
quotations  of  characteristic  passages. 

In  the  revision  of  the  Glossary,  the  editor  has  been  much  indebted 

to  Messrs.  L.  M.  Harris  and  C.  L.  Crow,  students  in  the  University  at 

Lexington,  Va.

PREFACE. 


ONE  of  the  most  ui'gent  needs  which  the  recent  revival  of  in- 
terest in  English  Philology  has  brought  to  light  is  that  of 
American  editions  of  the  best  specimens  of  First  English  Prose 
and  Poetry.  So  difficult  of  access  and  so  expensive  have  the  Ger- 
man, and  even  the  English,  editions  been  found,  that  the  study  of 
the  oldest  English  has  suffered  not  a  little  thereby.  Nor  is  it 
altogether  gratifying  to  the  pride  of  an  ingenuous  American 
scholar  to  feel  that  he  should  be  thus  dependent  upon  foreign 
sources  for  the  best  results  in  this  department.  As  far  as  the  pub- 
lication of  Middle  English  Texts  is  concerned,  the  main  woi"k  has 
been  done,  and  naturally  so,  by  native  English  scholars,  such  as 
Sweet,  Earle,  Skeat,  and  Morris,  under  the  auspices  of  the  Early 
English  Text  Society  and  kindred  agencies.  As  to  the  work  of 
what  has  been  called.  The  Earliest  English  Text  Society,  most  has 
been  done  by  continental  and  English  scholars.  Such  Danes  and 
Germans  as  Rask,  Bouterwek,  and  Grein,  and  such  native  English- 
men as  Thorpe,  Bosworth,  Arnold,  and  Kemble,  have  been  foremost 
in  this  arduous  work.  Up  to  a  comparatively  recent  date,  Ameri- 
can scholarship  had  made  no  conti-ibutions  to  this  subject.  What 
was  attempted  was  rather  in  the  line  of  the  elementary  than  in 
that  of  the  more  advanced  and  critical.  To  Professor  March  of 
Easton  is  due  the  awakening  of  a  genuine  interest  in  all  that  per- 
tains to  English  speech,  and,  more  especially,  as  to  its  first  forms 
and  uses.  Since  then,  more  or  less  of  worthy  work  has  been  done 
at  home  by  Corson,  Carpenter,  Cook,  Shute,  and  others.  To  Professor 
Harrison,  of  Lexington,  special  meed  is  due  in  beginning  the  editing 
of  the  best  First  English  Poetry.  His  recent  edition  of  Beowulf, 
from  the  text  of  Heyne,  marks  a  new  departure  in  the  critical  study 
of  our  mother  tongue.     It  opens  the  way  for  a  complete  series  of 


6  PREFACE. 

editions  accessible  in  American  forms,  and  at  moderate  cost.  The 
present  edition  of  Ca,'dmon\s  Exodus  and  Daniel  is  in  the  way  of 
contribution  to  this  needed  work,  and  is  designed,  mainly,  for  use 
in  college  classes.  There  is  no  part  of  our  oldest  poetry  as  good 
as  Cajdmon  which  is  so  difficult  of  access  in  this  country,  and  of 
which  there  is  more  immediate  need.  It  is  gratifying  to  state  that 
Professors  March,  Baskervill,  and  others  will  take  part  in  the 
series  proposed. 

Of  the  various  texts  of  Cajdmon,  there  are  four  which  any  editor 
must  have  on  his  table  :  Junius,  Thorpe,  Bouterwek,  and  Grein. 
Of  these,  the  last  is  by  far  the  most  valuable,  and  we  shall  adopt 
it  as  the  authoritative  text,  up  to  this  date.  We  shall  prefer  to 
give  Grein's  text  precisely  as  it  stands  in  his  Poesie,  save  that  the 
hyphens  between  compounds  have  been  omitted,  and  several  errors 
that  have  crept  into  the  text  have  been  corrected. 

Wiilker's  Revision  of  Grein,  so  long  promised,  will  soon  be  com- 
pleted. This  will  undoubtedly  give  us  a  text  superior  to  any  now 
extant;  and,  when  it  appears,  may  be  used  by  the  student  in  th» 
way  of  helpful  reference. 

In  addition  to  the  text,  with  a  brief  outline  of  its  separate  sec 
tions,  we  shall  give  a  brief  and  yet  sufficiently  full  glossary  for  the 
aid  of  the  advanced  student. 

Much  general  introductory  matter,  such  as  the  genuineness  of 
the  Paraphrase  and  kindred  topics,  we  must  omit  as  properly 
belonging  to  the  editor  of  Genesis. 

If  the  edition  hereby  offered  aids  a  whit  in  the  better  study  of 
our  home  speech,  and  deepens  the  interest  already  felt  in  a  knowl- 
edge of  its  first  forms,  our  final  end  will  have  been  reached.

GEJSTEKAL  INTBODUCTIO^. 


I.     C^DMON. 

THIS  "  Father  of  English  Song  "  appears  in  the  earliest  English 
history,  and  disappears  from  it,  with  but  a  fact  here  and 
there  to  fix  his  place  and  work.  In  the  account  of  Cfedmon  given 
us  by  Alfred,  in  his  translation  of  Bede's  Ecclesiastical  History, 
there  are  found  a  few  incidents  and  statements  which  serve  to 
make  up  his  only  biography.  It  is  suggestive  to  note,  that  this 
story  in  Bede  reappears  substantially  in  the  Heliand,  the  Old 
Saxon  Paraphrase  of  the  ninth  century.  It  may  further  be  noted, 
that  the  fragment  of  song  given  us  in  this  history  is  probably  the 
most  ancient  piece  of  Saxon  poetry  extant. 

From  this  we  learn  the  following  facts :  That  he  was  a  native 
of  Northumbria,  near  Whitby,  and  lived  in  the  seventh  century ; 
that  he  was  a  convert  from  Paganism,  and  a  member  of  the  Abbey 
of  Hilda ;  that  he  was  English  in  heart  and  spiritual  in  life,  sing- 
ing in  his  native  tongue,  and  always  for  holy  ends ;  that  he  was 
a  simple  herdsman  among  his  flocks,  specially  endowed  in  later 
life  with  the  divine  gift  of  poesy ;  that  he  wrote  many  poems ; 
that  he  sang  and  prayed  his  life  away  in  the  love  of  God,  and  died 
in  peaceful  triumph  about  680  a.d. 

All  we  know  of  him  is,  that  he  was  a  pious  monk,  taught  of 
God,  full  of  song  and  Saxon  spirit;  and  that  out  of  the  fulness 
of  his  heart,  and  for  the  common  weal,  he  sang  of  Creation  and 
of  Christ.  Such  may  be  said  to  be  the  traditional  account  of 
Csedmon. 


8  GENEKAL   INTKODUCTION. 

11.    THE  PARAPHRASE. 

1,    Source  of  the  Paraphrase. 

This  poem  by  Csedmon,  as  far  as  it  is  extant,  is  especially  im- 
portant to  English  scholars  in  that  it  marks  the  very  beginning 
of  Anglo-Saxon  literature  in  the  seventh  centuryj  its  close  being 
marked  by  the  completion  of  the  Chronicle  in  1154. 

As  to  its  source,  Bede  and  Alfred  give  us  all  that  is  to  be  given. 
In  Thorpe's  edition  of  Csedmon  we  may  find  a  sufficiently  accurate 
translation  of  this  narrative.  If  this  is  not  accessible,  it  may  be 
found  in  any  good  histoi'y  of  the  Anglo-Saxons  or  in  the  Saxon 
text  in  March's  Reader.  The  substance  of  the  record  in  a  few 
words  is,  that  he  was  an  untaught  herdsman,  ignorant  of  poetry ; 
that,  asleep  among  the  cattle,  he  heard  in  his  dream  a  voice  bid- 
ding him  sing;  that,  refusing,  he  was  again  commanded  to  sing 
the  origin  of  things,  and  so  began  his  song.  At  the  request  of  the 
abbess,  Hilda,  he  sang  before  all  the  learned,  and  turned  into 
sweetest  verse  all  that  they  taught  him.  Forsaking  the  worldly 
life,  he  joined  the  monks  and  devoted  himself  to  the  work  of  the 
minstrel.  In  this  simple  manner  the  origin  of  the  Paraphrase  and 
other  poems  has  come  down  to  later  history.  Such  is  the  ti-adi- 
tional  origin  of  the  Paraphrase. 

2.  Its  Metrical  Structure  and  Moral  Character. 

We  find  in  Csedmon  a  good  example  of  classic  Saxon  poetry,  a 
specimen  of  the  language  on  the  basis  of  which  successful  study 
may  be  conducted.  As  to  the  versification,  it  is  that  which  all  our 
First  English  Poetry  has  in  connnon.  We  note  the  presence  of 
alliteration,  both  of  consonants  and  vowels,  and  the  imiform  divi- 
sion of  the  line  into  two  sections  (heraistichs),  the  caesura  falling 


GENERAL   INTRODUCTION.  9 

between  them.  We  note  but  few  examples  of  fiual  and  perfect 
rhyme.  The  prevailing  type  of  verse  is  the  narrative  with  four 
feet  in  each  poetic  section.  The  long  narrative  verse  is  less  fre- 
quent. As  to  accent  or  syllables  determining  the  verse,  we  note 
the  emphasis  of  the  former,  and  this  places  our  earliest  poetry  in 
harmony  with  our  best  modern  poetry. 

Centuries  ago,  Bede  stated  the  principle  still  in  force,  that 
"rhythm  depends  on  the  sound  and  modulation,  and  not  on  an 
artificial  government  of  the  syllables." 

It  may  be  added  that  parallelisms,  which  so  mark  the  structure 
of  Hebrew  verse,  are  a  conspicuous  feature  of  the  poetry  in  ques- 
tion, while  there  is  found  the  same  prevalence  of  metaphor, 
indirect  statement,  inversion  and  abrupt  transition  that  mark  all 
our  first  poetry. 

It  is  worthy  of  mention  that  Mr.  Guest,  in  his  English  Rhythms, 
speaks  of  the  special  skill  with  which  Csedmon  manages  his 
metres. 

As  to  its  moral  character,  the  Paraphrase  speaks  for  itself.  It  is 
a  free  poetic  rendering  of  Holy  Writ  to  foster  piety  in  the  hearts 
of  the  people. 

It  was  the  first  attempt  in  English  verse  to  popularize  the  Bible, 
and  thus  places  its  author  in  line  with  the  authors  of  the  Old 
Saxon  Heliand,  with  Orm,  Dante,  Milton,  and  Klopstock,  and  with 
our  own  lamented  Longfellow.  The  poem  is  spiritual  throughout, 
and  opens  a  question  ill  to  solve,  as  to  the  presence  in  a  converted 
pagan  of  such  clear  and  high  views  of  truth.  It  would  be  a  study 
of  no  little  interest  to  the  student  of  theology  to  note  the  manner 
in  which  this  "good  monk  of  Whitby"  paraphrases,  in  the  seventh 
century,  the  Scriptural  account  of  the  fall  of  man  and  kindred 
doctrines. 

There  are  reformers  before  the  reformation,  and  Caidmon  pre- 
pares the  way  for  the  great  work  of  Wicliff  and  his  successors. 


10  GENERAL   INTRODUCTION. 

3.    Contents  ok  rAitAi'iiiiASK. 

The  Hymn  and  the  Vision  ajiart,  tliere  are :  Book  I.,  Genesis, 
2935  lines;  Exodus,  589  lines;  Daniel,  765  lines.  Book  IL, 
Christ  and  Satan,  733  lines.  This  second  book  is  paraphrased 
from  the  New  Testament,  and  is  in  every  way  inferior  to  the 
first.  To  these  books  some  editors  add,  The  Sonrj  of  Aztiriah  and 
The  SotKj  of  the  Three  Children.  According  to  Bede,  the  Para- 
phrase is  but  a  part  of  Ca^dmon's  autliorship.  With  regard  to 
Cfedmon  and  his  Poems,  modern  criticism  has  modified  tradition 
as  follows :  (a)  That  no  one  of  these  poems  can  with  certainty 
be  ascribed  to  Ctedmon,  thougli  one  of  them.  Genesis  A,  was 
probably  based  on  his  work,  (b)  That  the  name,  Ctedmon,  is 
applied  to  the  poems,  on  the  ground  of  convenience.  See  Wiilker's 
Grundrks,  pp.  114,  140. 

4.     C^EDMON    AND   MiLTON. 

The  history  of  opinion  on  this  subject  is  full  of  interest.  As 
favoring  a  close  relationship,  we  note  the  names  of  Turner, 
Nicholson,  Thorpe,  Conybeare,  Southey,  and  Taine,  while  such 
cautious  writers  as  March  and  Morley  hesitate  not  to  give  this 
theory  the  benefit  of  the  doubt.  Mr.  Disraeli,  in  his  Amenities  of 
Literature,  devotes  an  entire  chapter  to  the  subject,  and  takes 
strong  ground  against  the  theory  of  literary  relation.  The  final 
settlement  of  this  question  is  impossible.  The  facts  are  too  few 
to  warrant  it.  Each  author  had  access  to  the  Bible,  and  to  biblical 
and  mythical  traditions,  and  drew  from  these  common  sources. 
The  coincidences  are  striking:  each  poem  is,  in  a  sense,  a  para- 
phrase of  Scripture ;  each  is  an  epic  and  on  the  same  theme ;  each 
opens  with  the  same  scene,  the  fall  of  the  angels,  and  proceeds  in 
a  somewhat  similar  manner.  As  to  Satan's  rebellion  prior  to  the 
creation  of  man,  and  his  consignment  with  the  fallen  angels  to 


GENERAL   INTRODUCTION.  11 

darkness  and  despair,  they  fully  agree.  The  source  whence  they 
derived  this  tradition,  Persian  or  Clialdean,  must  have  been  the 
same.  Each  poem  points  to  the  East  as  the  place  of  origin,  and 
many  of  the  scenes  and  actors  are  the  same.  As  to  more  specific 
resemblances,  we  may  note  the  description  of  Satan  and  his  fall ; 
of  hell  and  heaven ;  of  Adam  and  Eve,  and  the  speech  of  Satan 
to  his  rebel  hosts.  These  coincidences,  however,  need  not  be 
regarded  as  proving  identity  or  even  actual  imitation  of  plan.  It 
is  f m'ther  to  be  noted  that  these  similarities  are  found  in  Csedmon's 
Genesis  only,  the  subject-matter  of  the  other  portions  being  outside 
of  Milton's  jiurpose.  Even  in  Genesis  there  is  a  large  part  taken 
up  with  the  history  of  Abraham,  a  topic,  also,  apart  from  Milton's 
aim.  Moreover,  the  Paraphrase  is  based  upon  the  Apocrypha  as 
well  as  on  the  Canonical  Scriptures.  This  collection  of  books  is 
not  endorsed  by  the  Puritan  poet.  A  word  in  reference  to  the 
historical  relation  of  these  two  poets  is  here  essential.  The  MS. 
of  Junius  (1055)  may  have  been  accessible  to  Milton.  Morley 
writes :  "  Milton  knew  Junius  [Caedmon's  first  editor],  and  was 
interested  in  his  studies."  The  objection  by  Disraeli,  that  the  MS. 
was  too  precious  to  be  loaned  by  Junius,  is  unworthy  of  notice. 
To  the  graver  objection,  that  the  poet  could  not  have  read  it  in 
Saxon,  it  may  be  said,  that  Milton  was  a  careful  student  of  the 
earlier  times.  A  few  years  before  this  he  prepared  a  history  of 
England  up  to  the  Norman  Conquest,  in  which  he  makes  reference 
to  the  old  authors.  It  is  known  that  he  was  an  Oriental  scholar, 
and  thoroughly  versed  in  the  Modern  European  Tongues,  including 
some  knowledge  of  the  Low  Dutch,  so  akin  to  the  Saxon.  Under 
the  English  government,  he  was  "  secretary  for  foreign  tongues." 
The  argument  here  is,  that  it  would  not  have  been  strange  had 
such  a  linguist  been  able  to  read  the  Saxon  of  Junius.  If  not,  the 
meaning  could  have  been  made  known  to  him  by  Junius  or  Somner 
or  others.  By  reason  of  the  poet's  blindness  (1654),  this  was  prob- 
ably the   case.      Between  the  edition  of  Junius  (1655),  and  the 


12  GENERAL   INTllODUCTION. 

finishing  of  Paradise  Lost  (1661),  there  is  a  period  of  six  years  of 

possible  reference  to  Caedmon.  In  fact,  ISIiltou's  epic  was  not 
published  till  1667,  twelve  years  after  Junius.  The  plausible 
theory,  that  a  great  poet  cannot  be  indebted  to  his  predecessors, 
is  a  mere  hypothesis,  and  facts  are  against  it.  The  England  of 
Milton  had  something  to  learn  from  Bede  and  Alfred.  We  add 
the  suggestion,  that,  in  an  epic  upon  the  fall  of  man,  the  strong 
presumptive  evidence  is  that  Milton  consulted  any  existing  epic 
upon  a  similar  theme.  A  translation  by  Bosanquet  (1860)  of  the 
Miltonic  portions  of  Caedmon  into  English  Heroic  Verse,  is 
entitled  "The  Paradise  Lost  of  Cjedmon." 


SPECIAL  IJSTTEODUCTIOE". 


1.    Theme  and  Plan  of  the  Poems. 

THE  subject  of  Exodus  is,  The  Departure  of  Israel  from  Egypt, 
their  Sojourn  under  Moses  in  the  Wilderness,  and  their  Pas- 
sage through  the  Red  Sea  to  the  Land  of  Promise.  Of  the  forty 
chapters  of  Exodus  given  by  Moses,  Caedmon  paraphrases  but  a 
few,  and  even  here  the  poet  follows  the  sacred  narrative  much  less 
closely  than  in  Daniel.  As  far  as  the  authoritative  text  is  concerned, 
the  first  fifteen  chapters  of  the  history  may  be  said  to  be  the  only 
ones  referred  to  by  the  author.  He  dismisses  the  subject  as  the 
people  stand  upon  the  farther  shore  of  the  Red  Sea  with  the  prom- 
ised land  before  them.  It  is  also  noticeable  that  incidents  and 
facts  are  introduced  which  are  not  found  in  the  biblical  record, 
such  as  the  precise  order  of  march  through  the  Red  Sea,  the 
special  valor  of  the  warlike  bands  selected  to  oppose  Pharaoh,  and 
many  minute  statements  as  to  the  pillar  of  cloud  and  of  fire. 
The  subject  of  Daniel  is,  The  Deliverance  of  the  Three  Hebrews 
from  the  Fiery  Furnace.  The  poet  takes  the  record,  as  in  Exodus, 
from  the  Old  Testament,  giving  a  faithful  paraphrase  of  the  first 
five  chapters  of  the  Book  of  Daniel.  For  the  sake  of  clearness, 
the  first  of  these  poems  may  be  divided,  as  in  Grein,  into  eight 
sections,  and  the  second,  into  five.  The  topics  of  the  respective 
sections  will  best  be  given  in  connection  with  the  text. 

2.   State  of  the  Text. 
In  common  with  other  parts  of  C?edmon,  and  nearly  all  our 
earliest  writers,  the  text  is  more  or  less  unsatisfactory.     Among 


14  SPECIAL   INTRODUCTION. 

the  eight  sections  of  Exodus  there  is  one  (VI.)  that  seems  to  have 
been  bodily  interpolated,  while  in  the  third  section  of  Daniel  there 
is  a  very  loose  ]3araphrase  of  Azarias  as  given  in  The  Codex 
Exoniensis,  or  Exeter  Book.  The  addition  of  single  words  and 
lines  is  very  common,  as  also  their  omission.  In  the  best  editions, 
there  are  several  textual  gaps  which  the  editors  do  not  pretend  to 
supply.  In  many  other  places  no  one  can  be  dogmatic  as  to  the 
rendering.  Despite  these  facts,  however,  the  substantial  correct- 
ness and  unity  of  Exodus  and  Daniel  are  preserved. 

3.   Literary  Character. 

The  cast  of  the  poems  is  l3Tical  as  well  as  epic.  Moses  and 
Pharaoh,  Daniel,  Nebuchadnezzar,  Belshazzar,  and  the  Hebrew 
children  are  the  prominent  figures,  while  the  praises  of  Jehovah 
and  his  servants  are  sung  in  fervid  strain.  They  afford  one  of  the 
best  examples  in  our  literature  of  the  combination  of  the  narrative 
style  proper  to  the  epic,  with  the  freer  descriptive  style  of  impas- 
sioned verse.  Where  they  lack  in  smoothness  of  historical  order 
they  abound  in  imaginative  sketching  of  persons  and  scenes. 
Some  of  the  descriptions  are  as  bold  and  vivid  as  those  of  Beowulf, 
"the  Saxon  Homer."  In  this  respect  they  surpass  Genesis,  and 
have  always  been  regarded  as  poems  of  rare  interest,  especially 
characteristic  of  early  Teutonic  litei'ature.  They  are  in  the 
department  of  the  sacred  epic  what  Beowulf  is  in  the  historico- 
mythical  epic,  marked  by  the  old  Gothic  dash  and  daring. 

Their  influence  is  stimulating.  They  stir  the  blood.  They  are 
a  bold  testimony  by  a  converted  pagan  to  the  power  of  Jehovah 
on  behalf  of  his  oppressed  people.  We  think,  as  we  read  them,  of 
the  most  stirring  battle  songs  of  the  Bible,  and  of  secular  letters. 
They  have  the  same  martial  spirit.  It  is  for  reasons  such  as  these 
that  we  have  deemed  it  wise  to  place  these  poems  in  reach  of 
American  students.  It  is  hoped  that  they  will  aid  in  the  critical 
study  of  First  English,  and  infuse  into  the  modern  Teuton  some- 
thing of  that  Saxon  vigor  to  which  he  has  rightful  heirship.

conscripta,  et  nunc  primum  edita  a  Francisco  Junto,  MDCLV.  This 
edition  is  in  the  old  forms,  without  translation  or  comment.  It  is  very 
valuable,  however,  in  being  the  first  authentic  edition.  It  was  printed 
at  Amsterdam.  The  original  Ms.  on  which  it  is  based  was  found  in 
the  seventeenth  century  by  Usher^  through  whom  it  came  to  Junius. 
The  Ms.  was  given  by  Junius  to  the  Bodleian  Library,  at  Oxford, 
where  it  is  still  preserved.  It  is  a  small  folio  of  229  pages.  The 
remaining  17  pages  (Book  II.)  are  imperfect  in  style  and  transcription. 

1832.  Ccednion's  Metriccd  Paraphrase  of  Paiis  of  the  Holy  Scriptures, 
in  Anglo- Saxon.  By  Benjamin  Thorpe,  London.  This  ranks  as  the 
first  Anglo-Saxon  publication  of  the  Society  of  Antiquaries  in  London.

has  preface,  notes,  and  a  valuable  verbal  index.

After  a  scholarly  introduction,  there  follow  the  text  with  critical 
notes  ;  the  translation  into  German  Prose,  and  the  Glossary,  in  Saxon 
and  Latin.  It  closes  with  an  Anglo-Latin  verbal  index,  and  an  index 
of  selected  Anglo-Saxon  words. 

1857.  Ausgabe  von  Chr.  Grein  in  seiner  :  Bibliothek  der  Angelsdchsi- 
schen  Poesie.  Gottingen.  This  edition  of  our  oldest  poetry,  including 
Caedmon,  has  valuable  notes  and  an  invaluable  Glossary. 

Wiilker's  promised  complete  revision  of  Grein,  part  of  which  has 
appeared  (1883),  will  be  awaited  with  scholarly  interest.

M into' a  Manual  of  English  Prose  Literature. 

Designed  maiuly  to  show  characteristics  of  style.  IJy  William  Minto, 
M.A.,  Trofessor  of  Logic  and  English  Literature  in  the  University  of 
Aberdeen,  Scotland.  12mo.  Cloth.  5(j(i  pages.  Mailing  price,  ^1.65; 
for  introduction,  ^1.50. 

rpHE  main  design  is  to  assist  in  directing  students  in  English 
composition  to  the  merits  and  defects  of  the  principal  writers 
of  prose,  enabling  them,  in  some  degree  at  least,  to  accpiire  the  one 
and  avoid  the  other.  The  Introduction  analyzes  style :  elements 
of  style,  qualities  of  style,  kinds  of  composition.  Part  First  gives 
exhaustive  analyses  of  De  Quincey,  Macaulay,  and  Carlyle,  These 
serve  as  a  key  to  all  the  other  authors  treated.  Part  Second  takes 
up  the  prose  authors  in  historical  order,  from  the  fourteenth  cen- 
tury up  to  the  early  part  of  the  nineteenth. 


Hiram  Corson,  Prof.  English  Lit- 
erature, Cornell  University :  With- 
out going  outside  of  this  book,  an  ear- 
nest student  could  get  a  knowledge 
of  English  prose  styles,  based  on  the 
soundest  principles  of  criticism,  such 
as  he  could  not  get  in  any  twenty 
volumes  which  I  know  of. 

Eatherine  Lee  Bates,  Prof,  of 
English,  Wellesley  College:  It  is  of 
sterling  value. 

John  M.  Ellis,  Prof,  of  English 
Literature,  Oberlin  College :  I  am 
using  it  for  reference  with  great  in- 


terest. The  criticisms  and  comments 
on  authors  are  admirable  —  the  best, 
on  the  whole,  that  I  have  met  with 
in  any  text-book. 

J.  Scott  Clark,  Prof,  of  Rhetoric, 
Syracuse  University  :  We  have  now 
given  Minto's  English  Prose  a  good 
trial,  and  I  am  so  much  pleased  that 
I  want  some  more  of  the  same. 

A.  W.  Long,  Wofford  College,  Spar- 
tanburg, S.C.:  I  have  used  Minto's 
English  Poets  and  English  Prose  the 
past  year,  and  am  greatly  pleased 
with  the  results.

how  far  each  was  mfluenced  by  his  literary  predecessors  and  his

n^IIE  selections  are  accompanied  by  such  explanatory  notes  as 
have  been  deemed  necessary,  and  will  average  some  twenty

themselves  of  the  most  jirominent  wiiters  of  English  prose  for 
the  past  three  hundred  years  in  selections  of  sufficient  length  to 
be  characteristic  of  the  author,  aud,  when  possible,  they  are  com-

F.  B.  Gummere,  Prof,  of  English,

book. 


H.  N.  Ogden,  West  Virginia  Uni-

become  an  indispensable  lielp  in  the

Sidney's  Defense  of  Poesy. 

Edited  with  an  Introduction  and  Notes  by  Albert  S.  Cook,  Professor 
of  English  in  Yale  University.  12mo.  Cloth,  xlv  +  103  pages.  By 
mail,  90  cents ;  for  introduction,  80  cents. 

A  S  a  classic  text-book  of  literary  ajsthetics,  Sidney's  Defense  has 
enduring  interest  and  value.  Something  of  the  character  of 
Sidney  as  a  man,  of  the  grandeur  of  his  theme,  of  the  signifi- 
cance of  poetry,  of  sound  methods  of  pi'ofiting  by  poetry  and  of 
judging  it,  —  ought  to  be  disclosed  by  study  of  the  book.  In 
the  notes  everything  is  considered  with  reference  to  the  learner, 
as  far  as  possible  ;  and  the  j)oiut  of  view  is  not  exclusively  that 
of  the  grammarian,  the  antiquary,  the  rhetorician,  or  the  ex- 
plorer of  Elizabethan  literature,  but  has  been  chosen  to  include 
something  of  all  these,  and  more. 

William  Minto,  Prof,  of  Litera- 
ture, University  of  Aberdeen:  It 
seenis  to  me  to  be  a  very  thorough 
and  instructive  piece  of  work.  The 
interests  of  the  stiident  are  consulted 
in  every  sentence  of  the  Introduction 
and  Notes,  and  the  paper  of  ques- 
tions is  admirable  as  a  guide  to  the 
thorough  study  of  the  substance  of 
the  essay. 

Homer  T.  Fuller,  Pres.  Worcester 
Polytechnic  Institute,  Worcester, 
Mass. :  I  think  every  lover  of  the 
best  specimens  of  good  thought  and 


good  writing  in  our  mother  tongue 
must  confess  his  obligations  to  both 
editor  and  publishers  of  such  a 
volume  as  this.  First,  for  the  breadth 
and  accuracy  of  the  notes ;  second, 
for  the  historical  research  and  good 
critical  judgment  displayed  in  the 
introduction;  third,  for  the  good 
taste  and  clearness  of  the  type  and 
print ;  and  fourth,  for  the  timeliness 
of  the  appearance  of  a  volume  which 
just  at  present  calls  attention  to  some 
of  the  essentials  of  poetry.

Shelley's  Defense  of  Poetry. 

Edited,  witli  luti-oduction  and  Notes,  by  Albert  S.  Cook,  Professor  of 
Eii.i,dish  iu  Yale  University.  12mo.  Cloth,  xxvi  +  80  pages.  Price  by 
mail,  ()0  cents;  for  introduction,  50  cents. 

GIIELLEY'S  Defense  may  be  regarded  as  a  conipanion-piece  to 
tliat  of  Sidney.  In  their  diction,  however,  the  one  is  of  the 
sixteenth  century  and  the  other  of  the  nineteenth.  For  this  reason 
a  comparison  of  the  two  is  of  interest  to  the  student  of  historical 
English  style.  But,  apart  from  this,  the  intrinsic  merits  of  Shelley's 
essay  must  ever  recommend  it  to  the  lover  of  poetry  and  of  beauti- 
ful English.  The  truth  which  he  perceives  and  expounds  is  one 
which  peculiarly  needs  enforcement  at  the  present  day,  and  it  is 
nowhere  presented  in  a  more  concise  or  attractive  form. 


John  F.  Genung,  Prof,  of  Rhetoric, 
Amherst  Colleye :  By  his  excellent 
editions  of  these  three  works,  Profes- 
sor Cook  is  doing  invaluable  service 
for  the  study  of  poetry.  The  works 
themselves,  written  by  men  who  were 
masters  alike  of  poetry  and  prose, 
are  standard  as  literature;   and  in 


the  introductions  and  notes,  which 
evince  in  every  part  the  thorough  and 
symijathetic  scholar,  as  also  iu  the 
beautiful  form  given  to  the  books  by 
l^rinter  and  binder,  the  student  has 
11  the  help  to  the  reading  of  them

tion, 30  cents. 

rpHE  study  of  what  is  essential  and  what  accidental  in  poetry  is 
more  and  more  engaging  the  attention  of  thoughtful  men, 
particularly  those  occupied  with  educational  work.  Newman's 
Essay  expresses  the  view  of  one  who  was  a  man  of  both  action 
and  theory.  Besides  this,  the  Essay  is  a  notable  example  of  the 
literary  work  of  one  who  has  been  considered  the  greatest  master 
of  style  in  this  generation.  The  illustrative  apparatus  provided  by 
the  editor  includes  practical  hints  on  the  study  of  Greek  drama  in 
English,  an  index,  an  analysis,  and  a  few  suggestive  notes. 


Hiram  Corson,  Prof,  of  English,

T^HIS  volume  is  intended  to  meet  the  wants  of  three  cla.sses  of 
teachers  and  students,  those  of  Latin,  French,  and  English  or 
comparative  literature.  To  the  first  class  it  will  furnish  the  best 
Latin  metrical  criticisms,  ancient  and  modern,  on  poetry  ;  to  the 
second,  a  classic  which  every  highly  educated  Frenchman  is  sup- 
posed to  know  by  heart ;  and  to  the  third,  an  authoritative  state- 
ment, by  poets  themselves,  of  the  canons  recognized  in  the 
Augustan  ages  of  Latin,  Italian,  and  French  literature,  and,  to  a 
very  considerable  extent,  in  the  so-called  Augustan  period  of 
English  literature,  the  reign  of  Queen  Anne.  Those  who  read 
Latin  and  French  will  here  find  tlie  originals,  while  those  who 
read  only  English  are  pro-\dded  with  standard  translations.  A 
full  index,  containing  lists  of  the  Homeric  and  Virgilian  passages 
illustrated  and  a  topical  analysis  of  the  threefold  work  enhance 
its  value  for  the  class-room  and  the  private  student. 


Bliss  Perry,  Prof,  of  English, 
Williams  Collei/e :  The  fullness  and 
accuracy  of  the  references  in  the 
notes  is  a  testimony  to  his  patience 


as  well  as  his  scholarship.  ...  I 
wish  to  express  my  admiration  of 
such  faithful  and  competent  editing.

'PHE  text  of  this  edition  is  based  upon  the  literal  reproductions 

of  Arber  and  Morley,  and,  allowing  for  the  modernization  of 

spelling  and  punctuation,  is  believed  to  be  more  correct  than  any 

published  in  this  century.     The  index  is  unusually  full,  and  will 

enable  Addison's  comments  on  any  particular  passage  of  Paradise 

Lost,  as  well  as  on  those  of  the  ancient  epics  with  which  it  is 

compared,  to  be  found  with  the  least  possilile  trouble.

'  What  is  Poetry  ? ' 

Leigh  Hunt's  An  Answer  to  the  Question  including  Remarks  on 
Versification. 

Edited  by  Albert  S.  Cook,  Professor  of  the  Eiifjlish  Languajje  and 
Literature  in  Yale  University.  12nio.  Cloth.  000  pages.  Mailing 
price,  000  cents;  for  introduction,  000  cents. 

/^NE  of  the  most  delightful  short  papers  on  the  subject  of 
poetry  is  this  of  Leigh  Hunt.  Its  definitions,  its  quotations, 
and  especially  its  charm  and  spirit  make  it  peculiarly  valuable 
for  school  and  college  use  as  an  introduction  to  a  course  in  poetry 
or  criticism.  In  this  edition  the  quotations  are  conformed  to  the 
best  texts,  which  cannot  always  be  said  of  the  ordinary  issues. 
The  notes  are  few  and  brief,  and  have,  for  convenience,  been 
relegated  to  the  foot  of  the  page  ;  in  many  cases  they  are  merely 
devoted  to  locating  the  quotations  employed  in  the  text,  an  aid 
for  which  both  teacher  and  student  will  be  thankful.  The  index, 
as  in  other  books  by  the  same  editor,  is  a  feature  of  tlie  new 
edition. 

Analytics  of  English  Prose  and  Poetry. 

By  L.  A.  Sherman,  Professor  of  English  Literature  in  the  Univei'sity 
of  Nebraska.  12mo.  Cloth.  000  pages.  Mailing  j)riee,  000  cents ; 
for  introduction,  000  cents. 

T^HIS  book  was  written  to  embody  a  new  system  of  teaching 
literature  that  has  been  tried  with  great  success.  The  chief 
features  of  the  system  are  the  recognition  of  elements,  and  insuring 
an  experience  of  each,  on  the  part  of  the  learner,  according  to  the 
laboratory  plan.  The  principal  stages  in  the  evolution  of  form 
in  literature  are  made  especial  subjects  of  study. 

It  aims  to  make  criticism  begin  on  less  vague  and  more  exact 
foundations.  The  discussion  in  each  chapter  is  in  the  nature  of  a 
condensed  lecture  before  laboratory  experiment  and  verification  in 
the  topic  treated.  Tlie  text-pages  of  the  volume  proper  are  adaj)ted 
alike  to  students  of  higher  or  lower  grade,  and  the  treatment,  so 
far  as  left  incomplete,  is  continued  in  notes  provided  in  an  appen- 
dix. To  aid  teachers  not  acquainted  with  laboratory  methods, 
hints  and  suggestions  how  to  set  the  student  at  work  for  himself 
are  added  to  many  chapters.

T^niS  is  the  first  attempt  to  edit  a  long-neglected  English  classic, 
which  needs  only  to  be  better  known  to  take  its  place  among 
the  best  examples  of  the  height  of  Elizabethan  prose.  The  text 
—  the  restoration  of  which  entitles  the  book  to  a  place  in  every 
library  —  is  based  on  a  careful  collation  of  the  folio  of  1641  with 
subsequent  editions  ;  with  such  modernization  in  spelling  and 
punctuation  as  a  conservative  judgment  has  deemed  imperative. 
The  introduction  and  a  copious  body  of  notes  have  been  framed 
with  a  view  to  the  intelligent  understanding  of  an  author  whose 
wide  learning  and  wealth  of  allusion  make  him  the  fittest  exponent 
of  the  scholarship  as  well  as  the  literary  style  and  feeling  of  his  age.

is  a  matter  for  rejoicing  that  so  valu-

ature as  this  prose  work  of  Jonson, 
should  be  made  easily  accessible  and 
should  have  all  the  advantages  of

^HE  leading  purpose  of  this  volume  is  to  introduce  the  student 
to  the  aesthetic  and  organic  character  of  English  Verse  —  to 
cultivate  his  susceptibility  to  verse  as  an  inseparable  part  of  poetic 
expression.  To  this  end,  the  various  effects  provided  for  by  the 
poet,  either  consciously  or  unconsciously  on  his  part,  are  given  for 
the  student  to  practice  upon,  until  those  effects  come  out  distinctly 
to  his  feelings.

The  Two  Noble  Kinsmen,  by  Fletcher  and  Shakespeare ;  and  The

specimen  of  the  dramatic  work  of  each  of  the  five  Elizabethan 
poets  who  rank  next  to  Shakespeare,  but  also  a  general  view  of  the 
development  of  English  drama  from  its  rise  in  Marlowe  to  its  last

rpHIS  book  is  a  departure  from  the  ordinary  mode  of  teaching- 
English  Literature.  It  follows  the  critical,  comparative,  and 
philosophical  method  of  the  best  universities,  and  combines  the 
advantages  of  the  tabulated  synopsis  of  authors  and  books  with 
those  of  the  critical  literary  history.  History,  politics,  society,  and 
religion  are  studied  with  the  proper  perspective  in  relation  to  liter- 
ature, and  are  made  to  show  why  literature  is  necessarily  charac- 
teristic of  the  age  that  produced  it.

and  Greek  authors),  containing  an  historical  and  interpretative 
commentary  upon  certain  myths,  supplementary  poetical  citations, 
a  list  of  the  better  known  allusions  to  mythological  fiction,  refer-
